      Great Vision, But Leadership from Wirehive Lacks Scale Experience - Anonymous employee Pax8 Employee Review

      Pros

      Pax8 has a strong brand, a compelling value proposition for partners, and a passionate employee base that wants to make a real impact. Many individual contributors and mid-level leaders are smart, driven, and mission-aligned. There’s genuine excitement around innovation, and some teams are doing excellent work despite structural gaps.

      Cons

      The company is trying to scale without the foundational maturity needed to support rapid growth. A major concern is the influence of leadership from the Wirehive acquisition. While the current COO and CIO may have been successful in a startup context, they lack the experience required to lead and scale a global enterprise. This has led to a lack of clear strategy, weak governance, and fragmented execution across key business and technology functions. Their approach tends to prioritize short-term fixes over long-term structure, often mistaking complexity for progress. As a result, critical areas like technology strategy, process standardization, and enterprise operations are underdeveloped.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughtful feedback and for your contributions during your time at Pax8. I'm glad you appreciated our vision, the dedication of our people, and the passion that drives teams across the organisation. I also acknowledge the growing pains that come with rapid growth and the challenges of making the transition from start up to enterprise. We have been working hard over the last year to put foundational systems and processes in place without losing out innovative edge and start up culture that has been critical to our success to date. We may not always get it right, but we are committed to learning, growing and evolving. Thank you for everything you contributed to Pax8 and I wish you the best of luck with your future endeavours.

      Pros

      Strong individual contributors who are partner-centric. New office is nice for hybrid work.

      Cons

      What was once a strong culture has eroded significantly due to poor leadership, misaligned talent in key roles, and a chronic lack of strategic direction and communication. Tenure or relationships are rewarded over competence, and those at the top protect each other — even when decisions have negatively impacted the business and/or partners. People are treated as revenue-generating assets, not human beings. Leadership is so deeply disconnected from the real problems that have persisted for years.

      Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear that our people, partner focus, and hybrid workspace stood out positively for you—these remain core to who we are. We also recognise that maintaining a strong culture as we grow takes ongoing focus. We continue to invest in strengthening leadership capability, improving how we communicate and align on strategy, and creating more consistent ways for feedback to be heard and acted on across the business. We know there’s always more to do in these areas, and insights like this play an important role in helping us improve and we hope you took time to share this feedback internally via leadership or our anonymous channels whilst you worked with us. We appreciate you sharing your experience and wish you all the best for the future.
